London is the biggest city in the southwest and the one with the most rental property per square block. A large part of what we do here is turning units around between tenants, fast, without the landlord having to chase five different trades.
Western University's University College tower is the building most Londoners picture when they picture the city, Gothic stone up on the hill above the Thames. Downtown has Covent Garden Market and Budweiser Gardens.
Anywhere from Windsor to London, it's the same number: 519-278-5085.
Anything near Western or Fanshawe empties out at the end of April and has to be ready again by the end of August. That is the window, and it does not move. Patch and paint, flooring, doors that have been kicked, a kitchen that needs to look lettable again by September. We schedule around that calendar because half our London work depends on it.
The heritage streets north and east of downtown are full of large century homes that have been carved into units and put back together more than once. Beautiful houses, and genuinely tricky work: original trim you cannot buy, floor levels that disagree with each other, wiring installed in four different decades. We are careful in those houses, and we will tell you when something wants a specialist rather than pretending otherwise.
St. Thomas has a thirty-eight tonne concrete elephant on the edge of town, and everyone there knows why. Jumbo, the most famous circus elephant in the world, was killed by a train in the St. Thomas rail yard in September 1885, and the city put the statue up for the hundredth anniversary. It tells you something about the place that they built it.
Every dot is a real place, plotted where it actually sits. Hover or tap one and we'll tell you what we know about it and who to call.
Point at your town, or tab through them, to see what we know about it.
Call 519-278-5085 for any of these. Nearby and not listed? Call anyway, we probably cover you.
That is a large share of our London calendar. Book early, because the good weeks in May and June go first. We can handle several units for the same landlord in one run.
Regularly. We will be honest with you about what is worth restoring and what has been patched so many times it needs replacing, and we will say when a job wants a heritage specialist instead of us.
We will tell you straight what it takes, what it costs, and when we can be there. Free consultation.
